RAW )
War The Israelites had to take possession of the Promised Land by conquest .
They had to engage in a long and bloody war before the Canaanitish tribes were finally subdued .
Except in the case of Jericho and Ai ,
the war did not become aggressive till after the death of Joshua .
Till then the attack was always first made by the Canaanites .
Now the measure of the iniquity of the Canaanites was full ,
and Israel was employed by God to sweep them away from off the face of the earth .
In entering on this new stage of the war ,
the tribe of Judah ,
according to divine direction ,
took the lead .
In the days of Saul and David the people of Israel engaged in many wars with the nations around ,
and after the division of the kingdom into two they often warred with each other .
They had to defend themselves also against the inroads of the Egyptians ,
the Assyrians ,
and the Babylonians .
The whole history of Israel from first to last presents but few periods of peace .
The Christian life is represented as a warfare ,
and the Christian graces are also represented under the figure of pieces of armour (
Eph .
6 :
11 -
17 ;
1 Thess .

The final blessedness of believers is attained as the fruit of victory (

WAR .
A contention by force ;
or the art of paralysing the forces of an enemy .
2 .
It is either public or private .
It is not intended here to speak of the latter .
3 .
Public war is either civil or national .
Civil war is that which is waged between two parties ,
citizens or members of the same state or nation .
National war is a contest between two or more independent nations )
carried on by authority of their respective governments .
4 .
War is not only an act ,
but a state or condition ,
for nations are said to be at war not only when their armies are engaged ,
so as to be in the very act of contention ,
but also when ,
they have any matter of controversy or dispute subsisting between them which they are determined to decide by the use of force ,
and have declared publicly ,
or by their acts ,
their determination so to decide it .
5 .
National wars are said to be offensive or defensive .
War is offensive on the part of that government which commits the first act of violence ;
it is defensive on the part of that government which receives such act ;
but it is very difficult to say what is the first act of violence .
If a nation sees itself menaced with an attack ,
its first act of violence to prevent such attack ,
will be considered as defensive .
6 .
To legalize a war it must be declared by that branch of the government entrusted by the constitution with this power .
